“…Brazil, China and India alone accounted for 43% of indexed mental health publications and for almost 40% of the researchers identified (though, when considering the number of indexedpublications per million people in the 12 countries, ratios ranged from 0.2 to 17.1; and the density of mental health researchers per million people varied from 0.4 to 6.1). The countries with the highest research outputs, were the richest among the 114 LAMIC and those that have undertaken studies in collaboration with high-income countries and have national journals indexed in international databases (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and South Africa) [19,24,25].…”

“…Además, la gran desigualdad en producción de publicaciones en salud MN entre los países latinoamericanos se hace evidente cuando vemos que la mayoría de publicaciones vienen de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, México y Venezuela, con muy pocas o ninguna de los países restantes. Aún así, la producción de aquéllos seis está bastante lejos de igualar a la de los países desarrollados (11).…”
